It supports VNTI import and the cloning support is coming along very well.

I’m a long time Mac user and it annoys me when companies expect us to run Windows to access their software because they are too lazy to do a port.

Now that Invitrogen are proposing to charge for Vector NTI, I’m going to bite the bullet and purchase a supported native Macintosh application like MacVector. The trial version seems to be every bit as good as Vector NTI for cloning, and it was only the cost that held me back before. Has anyone had experience in transferring Vector NTI files to a common format that MacVector or LaserGene can read?

I am unable to use the control key to select sets of non overlapping sequences to file on my computer.
Everything was great until last Sunday when I downloaded a VM fusion upgrade. I am now unable to open Vector NTI and get aa message that I am missing a component MCN71.DLL and have to reinstall the program to get it functioning. I tried getting help from VMware, but they don’t really help. I will try reinstalling the program over the weekend. I am disappointed with being able to find a contact who would know what might have happened

I tried many times to find something that would run natively on a new mac and would be of equal functionality but i failed. I have to propose a better alternative. Just install VectorNTI using Darwine on a mac. It works great and you don’t have to install awful windows or any other program.
